Excellent illusion, but so many toys typically make an entry feel amateurish and distract from the idea. What if you had drawn the same thing in sidewalk chalk so that real people could stand on it, or maybe placed a single Slinky going down the staris?

Very nicely done! The dog really sells it well. The skunk is a bit of an attention hog, and the top marble lookslike it has moved. The dice really completes the illusion. but otherwise very nice.

I would have taken out some of the items. it's a bit distracting for this colorful image. IMHO.

Well executed illusion. Took me a while to get it, but now that I see it, it's really cool. Nice job.

ahh the classic illusion. this is very cool. one of the better illusions in this challenge. the long shadows don't help the shot, but the illusion sort of trumps that. well done.

Nice illusion. The only thing...I think you have too many objects in the picture. With all of them together, unless you were familar with the illusion, I don't think people would be able to tell what they are looking for.

I understand what you're trying to accomplish here but the illusion is lost with all of the characters on the same yellow stairs. It might have been better accomplished by placing some items on the red stairs to trick the eye on what's up and what's down. Changing the lighting to remove all the shadows would also help IMHO.
